YB. Don't mis interpret my post. Im not laying blame to the hunter that could shoot the deer. I blame the state. We have enough rules or laws that aren't being enforced. This will be a nightmare for the game wardens, court systems etc.
Only thing I disagree with that you said is "unable to maintain proper custody of the dog" where we hunt there are 10s of thousands acres of land between a few clubs. It is not unusual or improper to have a hound get away on another club and spend the night out.
